The World Cup performances of John Painstil are attracting the attention of Anderlecht, according to reports from Belgium.

Painstil has been a consistent performer for Ghana in Germany, part of a successful side that has claimed a surprise place in the last 16 at the expense of Czech Republic.


The promising right back currently plies his trade in Israel with Hapoel Tel Aviv but could be ready to try his luck at Anderlecht if they firm up initial interest.

Painstil is well known for his adventurous forward forays but he could be drafted in as a replacement for Vincent Kompany, bound for Hamburg, as he can also operate as a central defender.


Anderlecht have yet to publicly confirm interest in the African but if both Ghana and Painstil continue to impress, there could yet be more suitors which emerge.
